LIGHTSABRES ink deal with HeviSike Records; confirm details of new album

HEVISIKE RECORDS are proud to announce the signing of LIGHTSABRES, as they unveil details of their upcoming album.

Hailing from Luleå, Sweden, LIGHTSABRES have today unveiled the first track to be taken from Hibernation, due out via HeviSike Records on March 4, 2016

LIGHTSABRES is the stand alone project from John Strömshed – front man for Swedish hard rock/blues outfit Tunga Moln. Hibernation is his fourth album, and marks a shift in direction and atmosphere.  Where previously garage-rock influences reigned supreme, this new era is ushering in lush fuzz, psychedelic interludes and meaty, 70s inspired riffs.

Previous album, Beheaded, released earlier in 2015 caused something of a buzz in underground circles, and fans of that release won’t be left disappointed by Hibernation. Although the latest offering feels much darker and more raw than Beheaded, there’s still plenty to get heads banging and feet tapping – LIGHTSABRES have just turned the intensity up a notch.

Tracklisting:

1. Hibernation
2. Endless Summer
3. Cascades Of Blood
4. Whisper To Me Softly
5. Breaking Bones
6. Throw It All Away
7. Satan’s Pilgrim
8. Blue Smoke
9. Possessed
10. Blood On The Snow

Hibernation will be released on limited edition vinyl – mastered especially for the format by Tony Reed (Mos Generator), and available to preorder from Friday January 29, 2016.
